Kingston VO is very fast. My wife's timeline on GCkey all showed background and eligibility not started until they issued the visa and COPR. When you receive the pre-arrival letter, the passport request usually follows just a few days later. That's going from my own experience and others Ive seen with successful applications via Kingston.

Thank you ! This is reassuring! Can you tell me when was your wife’s AOR?
I will definitely be checking out this thread
You won't get PPR letter. Print your RFV and use that as PPR letter.
GCKey won't be updated till you get your passports stamped.
but VFS global needs PPR letter to book appointment for passport submission.
does anyone have any experience with receiving RFPR request these days and how long after they got processed ?
If you get RFV, that becomes your PPR letter, wrote this a while back(look at point #9): https://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/threads/june-aor-2023-thread.805786/post-10498638
Just like you, I got RFV too. I printed my RFV and used it for VFS. It is a pretty common thing.
overthinking. The mail you received clearly asks you to submit your passport for stamping. That is same as passport request. Just use that and move ahead. Best luck.
hey guys, yesterday I noticed a GU in GCKey saying Application Status Update, with no changes at all, BG was in "We are processing your bg check" and it keeps like that. No changes in tracker as well, BG in progress, Eligibility not started.
Can this be the final GU before PPR?

> The BGC will change twice. First when your criminality is in progress, which is fairly early in the application, and then will go back to not applicable. It will then again change to in progress, after eligibility has been passed and when security screening is in progress. This is usually at the end of the application processing.
>If your application BGC has seen a change twice, then your application is nearing an end.
I haven't seen most applications go through these changes (turning to not applicable and then changing again) consistently though.
I think there’s a current glitch in the system however that are changing most bgc to not applicable. I read a few people have this problem and when they called ircc that’s what they were told .
My bg has been at not applicable for over a month but in progress on tracker. It’s so hard to know which stage I’m at now because of this. I hope it will continue to follow the pattern you mentioned because it would help a lot of people , like myself at least have some idea of what stage they’re at.
Thanks!! Problem is that I started to check my account regularly only after MEP, then I couldn't see anu GU's before that. I got an update status by email 1 day after MEP and BG changed to "We are processing..." while BG in tracker changed to In Progress, so I imagine (and hope) this was IP2 and the one I received yesterday was final GU but it's hard to say because Eleigibility is not started. Will wait and post here if any updates.
